Aloe peglerae Seeds
Red-hot Poker Aloe
Aloe peglerae is a small, stemless aloe, which grows on the north facing slopes of the Magaliesberg and Witwatersrand. These plants often occur in a small group. The leaves are greyish-green in colour and tend to curve inward. The leaf margins of new growth have whitish spines as opposed to the reddish brown spines on older leaves. The backs of the leaves have spines midway from the base to the top. Aloe peglerae flowers in winter. This plant often has a single flower stalk. The flower buds are dull red with purplish stamens protruding from the flower tube. The flowers are apparently pollinated by birds, bees and wind.
